I have used VSCD video editor in FREE edition to edit/master my neices wedding videos and found it very flexible, I got the Pro license from a previous giveaway and recently installed the latest version of 5.7.7.702 over the top and was able to re-activate it with previous giveaways license which was a bonus. I found this latest pro version accepts UHD and 4K project settings right from the new project settings user interface without the later GUI input field fiddling that was required in the older versions. I found the latest version to be far more stable when authoring UHD slideshow videos with far less crashes generated if the slidshow became too complex. I found that UHD HVEC/H265 and VP9 codec output apeared to stall and fractional percent progress, while UHD H264 output worked fine. I cannot verify whether this is a vista problem or a VSCD problem. But for its video authoring I certainly do recomend it if you need to do more than just basic crop and merge video files, ie needing to rotate over a user definable timeline as well as many other advanced editing features. There is a definate learning curve, but that doesn't exclude untrained people from using it, I did, we just have to engage brain a little!

I see that the PRO version is an annual subscription. I assume that means that next year, it will cost $19.99 to maintain the ability to use the PRO version and that non-subscription will cause this download to revert to the free version?

For those of you wondering where they are based,looks like,according to press releases,(Google-search "Flash-Integro LLC mailing address",minus quotation marks) and look at the results regarding press releases,towards the bottom of the first page-they are based out of Russia-Moscow,to be specific,from what I can determine.Personally,I could care less WHERE they are based,as long as the software is up to par,or better,and the English translation for the user is intelligible.Probably the reason the Software dev is being reticent about their location,is because of all the recent brouhaha over a situation that does not exist,IMO.I don't think I need to go into,nor do I want to,unfurl a long explanation there,to keep my comments brief, and on-topic.I've actually got some of their software that was offered recently on a giveaway,but it was the free version,so I am definitely going to give the PRO version being given away today a spin.I also follow them on Facebook,and they are always giving instructional, how-to videos,and tips and hints.Also,I always notice when a Software Dev takes the time to address GOTD's visitors comments,and questions-to me,that is usually,almost always,an indicator that they actually care,as long as they are not being flippant,or dismissive,in their comments.Thanks,BTW, to Flash-Integro,and GOTD.Oгромное спасибо,(thanks a ton; lit: a giant thank you) [agromnaye spasiba].
